A stability follow-up to the day-one patch

This update follows the day-one patch, which focused more on gameplay tuning: stamina balance for Michael and Civilian characters, wider discovery range for Escape objectives, and fixes for Chapter 5 achievements, hiding spots, and map rotation. Update 1.017 keeps the tuning intact and goes after the technical crashes players reported since launch.

It's also a warm-up for the bigger October 27 content update, which adds the free Tower Farm map alongside paid Michael Myers skins, new Civilian characters, and a costume pack. Check the game's official news page for the full breakdown.
